Sorry Georgie - couldn't think of what to make to enter.

Macma - you're welcome - I couldn't believe how much difference it made either - thanks Dragon

Am chuffed with my Meiflower prize although I'm supposed to be emptying my house not filling it.

This LOTV colouring course is becoming a tad expensive - not that it was cheap in itself but have had a list of 29:eek: promarkers that you need plus some other general supplies (which I have) - even though I have most of the PMs and wasn't going to buy the rest sod's law that there are 5 I don't have :mad: hi ho hi ho to Joanna Sheen I go

Hello all. hope everyone's ok.

Sorry for not entering your challenge Georgie x

Flourgirl, a new bag for a wedding is a must surely

Padster, well done on your win

I'm giving up my places on the Cards for Men DT and Craft Your Days Away DT due to starting work. I didn't want to but also didn't want the pressure of having to do all the commenting when all I may want to do in the evenings is veg in front of the telly - selfish so and so aren't I? I am starting work on 10th October and going in every morning the week before to settle in and get to know the children. I am really looking forward to it.

Could you PM me the list of what you need? I'm not going to this one but plan to go to the next one they run and if I could pick it up at the SECC next month that would be ace.

I'm going to the Stamp show on the Saturday with my OH and excited! Just what I need after a week of being ill
Felt extremely sick and dizzy on Monday but thought it was just a tummy bug - felt even more dizzy on Tuesday so took myself off to the dr's who promptly turned round and told me I had vertigo! Now here was I thinking "vertigo?! Isn't that what you get on top of tall places?!" but apparently it is a proper illness! Well, more like a symptom than an actual disease (can be caused by inner ear infection apparently) but now I'm on 3 travel sickness pills a day and not allowed to drive whilst having all the dizzy spells
Which makes the fact that I have to drive to Heathrow tomorrow morning a little interesting lol!!

Frieisian will do - you can buy the PMs on the day but have no idea how much they would be there - if you PM me your email address I'll send you the PM list as well then you won't have such a shock lol -

Any ideas what I could take 29 PMs in? other than a toilet bag although I do have a pretty nice clinique one that I've never used

Rainmac - you really won't need the stress - I've given up all but my Teddy Bo DT due to the move and we're not even going anywhere yet but I didn't want my crafting to become a chore rather than a pleasure. I don't think I realised how much of a chore commenting is rather than the fun of making cards IYKWIM. Plus I have so much going round in my head I have the concentration span of a mentally challenged gnat I blame it on having to cook during the week and effectively being a single parent again from Monday to Friday tea time :rotfl::rotfl:

Padster, I know, one week we had over 700 entries on CYDA :eek:, it was awful doing all that commenting tbh I want to use my spare time doing things I want to do or to sleep, whichever is priority at the time

Louise, sorry you are poorly, I've had inner ear infections and had the vertigo and it's horrible so I massively sympathise. Hope you feel better soon x

If you are buying some from JS, it might be worth chucking a promarker wallet in. Officially holds 24, but I'm sure you could fit another 5 in loose.

Life gets in the way sometimes, rainmac but what a lovely way your life has turned out to be, you'll be brilliant. Those little ones are so lucky to be able to have an auntie rainmac.

I've been offered a permanent DT spot before but I've turned it down due to those special circumstances I'm in at the moment. I've offered me services to our Choccy anytime she needs someone and that's fine for me.
